A WETT-style inspection of wood-burning appliances, venting and clearances, with a written report for insurance, mortgage and real estate requirements in Ontario. Northwestern winters demand reliable wood stoves, inserts and well-maintained chimneys.
What wett inspection involves
A WETT inspection is the insurance-recognized assessment of a wood-burning system — the appliance, the chimney and the clearances — performed by a certified inspector. Many insurers ask for one before they will cover a home with a wood stove, insert or wood fireplace.
We inspect to the WETT standard, document compliance or deficiencies in writing, and explain exactly what would need to change to bring a non-compliant system up to standard.
WETT Inspection and Thunder Bay homes
Thunder Bay's northwestern winters demand reliable heating, and wood-burning systems are common both in the city and around it. Well-maintained chimneys are a safety issue here, not a nicety, and seasonal service before the cold sets in is the pattern that works.
Booking, timing and cost
Most Thunder Bay homeowners book this work in the fall, and our schedule in Northern Ontario fills quickly from September onward. If you are reading this in the off-season, spring and summer appointments are easier to get and leave no rush before heating season.
Every visit in Thunder Bay follows the same standard: the work area is protected before anything starts, the job is explained before anything is opened up, and the price is confirmed in writing before work begins. You approve the scope — nothing gets done that you have not signed off on.
Pricing for this work in Thunder Bay depends on what we find — equipment, condition and access all play a part. Routine fixed-scope visits are quoted at booking, and anything beyond that is priced in writing after the inspection, before any repair begins.
